Transocean Chrono and the deployant PITA

Recommended Posts

Variatio Delectat

My first Breitlings ever, two Transoceans just arrived, and even though I wanted to see them IRL to decide which one I should keep I now love them both so they are keepers all together. Well, at least for the time being... winkCA3D11ZE.gif

 

But, and this is a big but (with one t, guys... cool.gif), the deployant is a real PITA. WTF did they think to make that piece of metal (see pic) on the inside so that it always is supposed to hurt by design? :mad:

 

I'd just love if anyone would have a solution. Any and all ideas are welcome and very well appreciated.

I seriously can't believe the designers at Breitling would have ever come up with such a dumb idea. This deployant is a joke. There is no way to make it comfortable at all. My fix is to buy a different depolyant. I have bought several of these http://www.mywatchma...loyantclasp.htm He is not a TD here, but there are many people @ watchuseek and Timezone that swear by this guys deployant and I am one of them. They work better than any gen that I have found. They accept a thicker strap than most and work really well. Oh, and by the way, they are available in just about every size in both brushed and polished finish. Here are a couple pics of one of my watches with that deployant on:

and some close ups of the deployant. btw I have no affiliation with this seller of the Deployants that I mention.

See how flat this one sits against the wrist.... Nothing jabbing you on the bottom side of your wrist.
